about

originally released 3/29/2014 on NotRock Records
notrockrecords.bandcamp.com/album/notrock-sampler-volume-iv-part-one
recorded in 2013 in east orange nj
the chorus is a self-referential music theory pun
i am so cooool

lyrics

i watch trains enter tunnels
like worms in earth
and i wish i could disappear

i could think of a thousand ways
to change my life
but i would still be here

though it gets old soon
i always find that i keep dancing round the root
dancing, spinning like a pinwheel
ever dancing round the root
i keep dancing round the root

like a sickness, long and low
my thoughts are still
and pool in sad, familiar ways

dull words repeating, time
and time, and time again
it's time to try another phrase

why should i run in place?
when instead i keep dancing round the root
dancing, spinning like a pinwheel
ever dancing round the root
i keep dancing round the root

oooo, like a pinwheel
round the root
oooo, ever dancing
round the root
